Lott will be blackmailed by the Dims for the next two years. The only way he can PROVE he isn't a racist is to vote for everything and anything the Black Caucus wants (and they want plenty!) Then the rest of the Republican senators will be painted with the same brush (thanks to Lott) and they too will have to vote for a lott of bad bills. This is going to cost us dearly if he stays as Majority Leader. We're going to be deluged with minority giveaway bills. He should be moved to the back bench ASAP.

Surprisingly, there are Republican issues like school vouchers and privatizing Soc Sec that Blacks are politically for... Do you think the Dems really want that?

I totally agree. That's about exactly what I've been saying for the last 24 hours.
